Weighted zigzag decodable fountain codes for unequal error protection

Abstract By combining bit‐shift and exclusive‐or operations, a weighted zigzag decodable fountain code is proposed to achieve an unequal error protection property. In the proposed scheme, the input symbols of different importance levels are first pre‐coded into variable nodes using low‐density parit...
